Keep these ingredients to make Makhani sauce
To make a creamy and delicious makhani sauce, use fresh puree from 2 tomatoes, 1 tablespoon butter, 2 tablespoons fresh cream, salt to taste, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper powder. You can add 1/2 teaspoon dried fenugreek leaves to enhance the aroma and flavor of the sauce.
How to make Cheese Corn Balls?
First, mash the boiled potatoes and sweet corn thoroughly in a large bowl. Add grated cheese, cornflour, finely chopped green chilies, black pepper powder, and salt, and mix everything well. Once the mixture is ready, roll it into small balls.
Heat oil in a pan and fry the balls over medium heat until golden and crisp. For a healthier option, you can easily prepare these in an air fryer or oven.
How to prepare creamy makhani sauce:
Heat butter in a pan and add tomato puree and cook for about five minutes to remove the rawness. Then, add fresh cream, salt, and pepper and cook over low heat for a few minutes. When the sauce thickens and becomes slightly creamy, turn off the heat.
These simple tips will make the taste even more amazing.
If you want a more cheesy flavor in every bite, use mozzarella cheese instead of regular cheese. For a healthier version, air-frying or baking is also a good option instead of deep-frying.
When serving, sprinkle some grated cheese, finely chopped coriander leaves, and a pinch of chili flakes on top. Adding a little kasuri methi to the makhani sauce enhances both its flavor and aroma exponentially.
This monsoon, make these Cheese Corn Balls with Makhani Sauce with your family. The combination of their crispy texture, cheesy filling, and creamy sauce will be loved by people of all ages.
